Seeking the Glory

The Bible has much to say about the glory of God. The psalmist prayed and longed for the glory of God. In fact we pray for it in the Lord's Model prayer for his disciples. Psalm 104:31-34 NIV
May the glory of the LORD endure forever; may the LORD rejoice in his works— he who looks at the earth, and it trembles, who touches the mountains, and they smoke. I will sing to the LORD all my life; I will sing praise to my God as long as I live. May my meditation be pleasing to him, as I rejoice in the LORD.
'Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven. Matthew 6:9-10
Moses gives us an example of a person who seeks the glory of God. Exodus 33:12-34:9
Why does he seek to see God's glory? How does God manifest himself? What is its purpose and what is Moses reaction?
God's glory is the outshining of God's nature and attributes manifested in his exalted presence and his declared Word concerning himself. It is preeminently seen in Jesus Christ. John writes, "The Word became flesh and dwelt among us. We observed his glory, the glory of the one and only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth. John 1:14-15
To seek the glory or to be under the glory for one's own benefit is idolatry but to seek to give glory to God or to glory in God is worship.
